Teen Tikkun Olam Group

TEEN TIKKUN OLAM

Teen Tikkun Olam (TTO), a Temple B’nai Abraham group for teens in grades 8-12, meets one to two times a month. The goal of TTO is to volunteer in our synagogue and larger community. By making a difference in meaningful ways, we hope to nourish the expanding mind and soul of our Jewish teens. We help them explore how doing for others can be a miraculous moment for both the giver and receiver. Additionally, we give teens the opportunity to become the philanthropic leaders of our teen community!

TTO meets the first Tuesday of each month September-June at 5:30 PM. Jordan Gelber is the advisor.

Join the TTO team and make a world of difference! Cost to join is $36 for members and $72 for non-members for the year.
